What the brewers say
“Double dry hopped with Citra and El Dorado hops. Tropical and juicy. Notes of citrus, pear, and bubblegum.”
What our panel thought
Aroma: “Peach, tangerine, orange, mango, pine and a hint of dank. Light dry malt background.”
Flavor: “Super fruity and complex. Peach, tangerine, orange, mango. Malt supports by providing a touch of sweetness and a rich backbone. It finishes lightly bitter but lacks the softness that makes so many of these beers excellent. Well balanced overall.”
Overall: “Great example of the style and super rich. Perhaps drop the bitterness a bit to make it more sessionable, but it also works well where it is now. A well-balanced DIPA.”
